controls going crazy in dialog with table hierarcy

I tried a variation of the "typical dialog box" example but to remove the degenerate absolute positioning styles and instead put into a table hierarchy. Suddenly the controls went crazy -- combo drop down is not responsive, and if I try to select a Input control it is not responsive. If I select another Input control the browser (IE) starts to loop between the to Inputs at a rapid speed. Any ideas?
